During the latest Win The Ads segment, audience member Grace was lucky enough to be chosen to play. But as her photo and name appeared on-screen behind Ant and Dec, viewers were quick to notice the X-rated mistake.
As Dec was blocking part of her name, it actually spelled out w**k. Viewers couldn’t help but comment on the blunder online as one wrote: “I beg your pardon? What’s her name… #saturdaynighttakeaway.”
Another penned: “Feel so childish laughing at that unfortunate angle of her surname on the screen #SaturdayNightTakeaway.” “Unfortunate positioning there lol #SaturdayNightTakeaway,” a third declared. Despite the amusing mix-up, Grace went on to win all 16 prizes.
Ant and Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway – a two hour farewell spectacular – will air on April 13 on ITV1, STV, STV Player and ITVX.
